Yes, the knee pads as shown are included.
My 21-year-old son has minor back problems, but it doesn't seem to be affecting his life in any way. However, most doctors will advise you to strengthen your stomach muscles to help your back, so it should work in theory. BUT. As someone who has had three back surgeries, I would consider this type of exercise machine to be a little too extreme for someone who is suffering from serious back pain. It might help if your back pain is caused by muscle strain. If you have a bulging disk, sciatica, or spinal stenosis, however, I recommend doing something gentler.
I have no problems using it on a wood floor (I don't have carpet in my living room).
I've tested it on a berber carpet and it works well, though resistance will likely increase as the carpet becomes thicker. Because it's a repetitive motion and you're putting a lot of pressure on the carpet as you roll, you'll almost certainly leave a pattern on it.

When compared to my 10-year-old roller, this one falls short.
Your abs will thank you for using this abs roller. You can achieve a flat, muscular stomach by following a healthy diet and engaging in a well-balanced cardio routine. But take it easy at first; these ab exercises will tax your abdominal muscles, and you'll notice the strain the next day. Don't give up; it will take a few weeks for you to adjust. These exercises will put more strain on your shoulders, so pay attention and keep your form in check. Also, if you're older, make sure you have plenty of padding under your knees. Your knees may begin to hurt after a few weeks, so it's better to add padding now to avoid knee pain later. My son received one. He couldn't use it because he was too preoccupied with his work. I have a stomach that is flatter than his. I realize it's vanity, but as you get older, you take advantage of whatever opportunities present themselves.
I've had this roller since November 18, so I've had plenty of time to assess its utility and efficacy. When used correctly (please Google proper ab roller use! ), ab rollers can help you lose weight. ) are an effective abdominal strengthening and conditioning device, but this model has some flaws, primarily in the areas of gimmickry and weight. br>br>advantages and disadvantages br>br>Probr>- - - - - - - - - - - - - Because of the width, it works well on thin carpets or astroturf, but only use it at home if you order it.

The cost is higher than a regular abs roller, to be sure. You get what you pay for at the end of the day. It has the appearance of being a high-end product. After 2- After three weeks of use, I believe it only targets certain abs muscles. This alone will not give you the ripped abs you've always desired; you'll need to combine it with a well-balanced diet and more core exercises to target various muscles. However, for those working on their abs and core, this is an excellent addition. It's also a great deal of fun. Put it next to your TV and do it while watching TV or during commercials, rather than storing it in a closet where it will gather dust. It takes very little time to complete this task. You should notice changes in your body if you do it on a daily basis. Best of luck to you!.
I hadn't worked on my abs in a long time until I came across this abs roller, which solved my problem. Every day, 1 hour before bedtime, I do 25 reps x 5 sets for a total of about 25 minutes, with actual work time of 6 minutes. After 1 month, walaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa For those attempting to improve their core strength, this book is highly recommended. I believe you can get this for half the price somewhere else, but I cannot guarantee its authenticity. Simply put, I believe in Amazon as a company.
Strengthening your core and defining your abs are two of the most important things you I had been relatively inactive for about 6 months when I began eating healthy and exercising four times per week. 5 times per week, with home ab workouts with the Ab Carver Pro thrown in for good measure. It's something I've used for about three years. I've been working on my core strength and ab definition four times a week for the past six weeks, and I've noticed a significant improvement. I still do ab workouts at the gym as part of my other workouts, but this has been a great way to supplement my core work. Anyone would benefit from it. especially if you're sick of sitting for long periods of time ups!.
I like the design of this product, but the spring that helps users return to their original position breaks for many users. When a minor amount of pressure is applied to the internal spring, it easily breaks. Inadequate spring material and plastic spring stops used to keep the spring inside the carver are the causes of frequent spring breakage. I used the carver on a carpeted workout area, which increased the return resistance and caused the spring to break after only a few days. br>br>To open a carver with a broken spring, carefully peel away the circular information tape from both sides of the carver. Also, approximately 6 Phillips head screws set into the carver's plastic body must be unscrewed. The spring inside is held in place by a plastic stop, which is broken in the image below. Below is a picture of the broken end of the spring. Below is a picture of the other half of the spring inside the carver. The manufacturer should reinforce the spring stops with metal stops that are more durable, and use a more flexible and less rigid type of spring that does not break easily. The spring should be able to withstand pressures up to 300 pounds as advertised, not 200 pounds when it breaks. For the time being, I'm using the carver without the spring assist; however, if I had known the assist spring was so weak, I might have purchased the ab wheel, which is sold at a lower price.
